It was a really valuable opportunity to learn about the firm, it's really important knowing that BP is spread out over a large global arena and has important contacts and assets worldwide making it the largest provider of heat and light to the world!

They had clearly put effort into running the day and getting current employees to come along and talk about what they do, so seemed like they were keen

It was incredibly helpful! They all made an effort to make us feel incredibly comfortable throughout the day, introduce us to other grad schemers, hear about their experiences, and also receive some advice and tips on applications and also about the key aspects of their role at the firm.

Definitely helped to know the sort of things they are looking for when I apply to an internship Made me realise the wide range of jobs available at BP, which were different to those I would initially think of

It was quite well structured. It was incredibly helpful to have a trading game to understand what goes on in IST in a simplified way. It was also a great bonding opportunity to get to know the other grad schemers, and apply our existing knowledge behind it.

Good, all BP employees seemed more than happy to help and answer any questions, were made to feel welcome and shown where everything we would need is. Had some activities as well as just receiving information so the day was enjoyable

They really went out of their way to inform us about the application process and what they were looking for in potential candidates. At the same time they really helped give us tips and hints on how to perform well in the recruitment process.

I spent the best part of an hour talking to a grad schemer, who really explained the role, her experience, the best and worst parts of the role. It was a real eye opener and she really did sell the firm to me

It was extremely helpful! Seeing all these people from around the firm at the end, all there to talk to you and engage with you was proof enough that it's an extremely welcoming and friend,y place to work. The hierarchy is flat in the firm, you spend time talking to anyone, and it's usually the seniors that will reach out to you and ask you how you're doing.

It was really helpful in understanding the industry, and what roles are available in the firm. It's a firm I'd definitely like to apply to purely because of it's amazing culture, and the great time I've had.

Lunch provided, travel expenses to the site provided, received free BP hoodie.

Over lunch there was a chance to sit with some of the BP employees and talk to them about their careers, however, the employees weren't distributed evenly between the tables, so some scholars could talk to many staff members, and others were only able to find out about the career of one person.

We worked as groups for some of the activities, but the event was mostly about listening to people giving talks and finding out about applying for a role at BP, not just about networking.

There were talks about what graduates do while working on-shore and off-shore at BP, but the talks didn't mention social events. At previous BP events, we have had some of the more social activities described to us during talks.

Yes, but the event I attended was specifically for BP Scholars, however, BP do run more general Discovery Days for Î÷¹ÏÊÓƵs who don't receive the STEM scholarship.
